Lloyd watched alongside the ninja as Zane was deep underwater, attempting to beat his score. "What's so impressive about holding your breath underwater, I bet I could hold it twice as long."

"Ten minutes! He just broke his own record!" Kai cheered, ignoring the child. Lloyd pouted, watching as Zane emerged from the water

The ninja cheered and congratulated the ice elemental, helping him onto the bounty.

"Perhaps we have reached our full potential." Zane states. "Eh, I don't think you guys did anything that cool." Lloyd disagrees.

"Uh, did you forget how I walked on boiling hot coal?"

"Or how I was on top of the highest building during a thunderstorm."

"Or the fact that I can carry things triple my size."

The ninja all defended, Lloyd only giving a bored look. "(Y/n) could do all that." He mumbled.

"Why are we trying to fight with a kid about this?" Cole asked aloud. "Let's just go ask Sensei.

The four ninja, plus Lloyd, made their way to their Sensei's bedchambers, finding their master drinking tea with Nya and (Y/n).

Though, (Y/n) looked as if she was only holding her cup rather than drinking.

"A foot apart." Kai hissed, pointing at the two girls. Nya looked at him with confusion, while (Y/n) just scooted away.

"What can I help you four with?" Sensei Wu asked, with a light smile.

"Sensei, we think we have already reached our full potential, we've done every training we could possibly think of." Cole says.

The Sensei took a small sip of his tea, looking back up at the four.

"Peek physical potential, perhaps, but that is only part of the journey you must take." He says, taking another sip.

"Each and every one of you has something stopping you from reaching your goals, only when you take control of that fear will your hearts be free, only then will you truly be on your way to reaching your true potential."

He set his tea down, standing from his spot. "Only then, will you be able to stop the Serpentine from releasing the Great Devourer."

There was a long silence, apart from the tea (Y/n) was pouring into Nya's cup.

"Sensei, there is more to the Great Devourer than you've led on, isn't there?" Zane was the first to break the silence.

Their Master gives a heavy sigh, turning away from the ninja as he takes out the katana that was wrapped in an article of clothing. "I, too, have obstacles in need of facing."
